Who uses these pager systems? Our paging systems, while mostly sold to restaurants (thus our "FoodSoftware" name), are also perfectly at home in hospitals, clinics, salons, churches and many other applications.

What's a pager system? These are "local wireless pager systems". This means they don't use phone lines because systems have their own radio transmitters that broadcast up to a half-mile or so. They're extremely simple to use: To signal pager #5 (pagers are numbered 1-999), punch the "5" button on the transmitter keypad. The pagers are usually silent but hard to ignore because they vibrate or flash strongly. Systems are super easy to install- they're basically plug-and-play. They come complete with pagers, chargers and control transmitters.

What Kind of Pager System Do You Need? The two main kinds of pager systems are for either staff or guests. Staff pagers are for employees who keep them all day, usually clipped to a belt. Staff pagers are small and usually just vibrate silently.

Guests pagers (for patients or clients too) are carried only while they wait to be called, and then the pagers flash and vibrate conspicuously. Guests pagers are usually the size and shape of drink coasters ("coaster style") so they're hard to ignore. Guest pagers are also available in a variety of colors and shapes.

How Many Pagers Do You Need? This web site offers systems by the number of pagers in the set: 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, etc. You can conveniently order all the typical systems with this web site's shopping cart. The most popular system sizes are twenty guest pagers and ten server pagers, but you can also get custom systems with any number of pagers in any style. To order custom systems, call 805-375-7000.

How Many Transmitters Do You Need? Most of the systems offered here have one or few transmitters (also called "base stations" or "control panels") but have many pagers. Some systems types have the opposite, with many transmitters but few pagers. For example, beach service or dinner theater may have many transmitters (one unit at each umbrella or table) but just a few pagers for the servers. These are usually custom systems, so call 805-375-7000 to order.

More and New Paging Choices: Most of the systems described here work by sending radio signals directly from transmitters to pagers. But we also have cell phone voice paging by phone line and cell phone texting or voice paging by internet for guest pagers. For staff and guest pagers, we have transmitters that connect to your PCs with software that sends pages and text messages over your local PC network and internet. Please call for more details.
